The portable environmental monitor project or the uRADMonitor-D was announced today as one of the 10 finalists of the Hackaday Prize 2015, from a total of almost 1000 initial entries.

With this highly honourable distinction, the uRADMonitor project is committed to continue its mission of tracking health threatening pollutants at global scale. By expanding the monitoring network and increasing the complexity of the hardware and sensors deployed even further, the project will have a positive impact in improving the quality of life on Earth.

Thanks to the board of experts that judged the entries, both for their intense effort and their trust in the good the uRADMonitor brings.

The uRADMonitor is now a finalist both for the Grand Prize, and the Best Product category. The winner will be announced at the Hackaday SuperConference in San Francisco on November 14th and 15th.
